Jada Pinkett Smith Latest News, Photos, and Videos

Jada Pinkett Smith and Regina Hall strike a pose on the red carpet as they attend a special screening of their upcoming film Girls Trip held at SCADshow on Tuesday (July 11) in Atlanta, Ga.

The 45-year-old actress and Regina, 46, were joined by producer William Packer who helped them introduce the flick to an excited audience.

Girls Trip follows the story of when four lifelong friends – Jada, Regina, Queen Latifah and Tiffany Haddish – travel to New Orleans for the annual Essence Festival, sisterhoods are rekindled, wild sides are rediscovered, and there’s enough dancing, drinking, brawling, and romancing to make the Big Easy blush.

The ladies were asked to share the advice they’d give to their 15-year-old selves.

“Love yourself because people will love you for who you are in the future,” Queensaid. “It’s a tough question to answer because I don’t know anything other than this journey. I’d probably tell my 15-year-old self, ‘Yo, you’re gonna be in a movie with Jada Pinkett.’”

“I would just basically tell myself that it’s okay. At 15-years-old it was rough and I brought a lot of pain out of my childhood into my adulthood that I’m just now dissolving. And, that pain held me back and I wish I had know then that pain is just a part of your journey and it’s not because you’ve done something wrong or because you’re cursed or you’re a bad person, we’re all going through it,” Jada said. “We all have pain, we all have a story. And, so, all we need to do is support each other through it and I wish I had know that, Jada, it’s just a part of it, baby. It’s going to be okay.”

The mother-daughter duo were spotted making their way through LAX airport on Thursday (June 22) in Los Angeles.

Earlier in the week, Jada and Willow enjoyed a beach vacation in Greece.

While they both enjoyed the sights and beautiful beaches, they also took part in an important beach clean-up mission.

“Being so far away from what I perceive as a polluted metropolis, I couldn’t stand seeing these beautiful beaches in Greece littered with trash. I saw seagulls, dead on their backs from choking on tiny slivers of plastic and other non-biodegradable materials,” Willow wrote on Instagram.

She added, “4 beautiful humans accompanied my mom and I in gathering 22 trash bags full of plastics and urban debris off of 3 small beaches in Antípaxos, Greece. When we see these things on our TV’s or phones it seems far away for some reason; But when it’s right in front of you I feel as though it is humanities responsibility to do as much as we can (in the moment and long-term) no matter how small the action is. As we all start to do our part, we gradually make a difference. Hopefully today we were able to elongate and preserve the beauty & existence of the local sea life.”
